Thorsten I should better fly to Hamburg with Ryanair rather than explain this via email :-) The steps are more or less these: - download and build ntop from svn http://www.ntop.org/download.html - start the ntop you have compiled with the options you currently use - wait until ntop presents the problem - do "ps auxw|grep ntop" and get the lt-ntop PID - cd <dir where the ntop you compiled is>/.libs - gdb lt-ntop - inside gdb do "attach <ntop PID above>" -type a few commands like "bt", "show threads" etc. Better if at this time I can connect to you PC so see what's happening.
